I tend to be a hermit. Keeping strange hours at work helps the process, especially in a sleepy town where they roll up the sidewalks around 9 p.m. and the only people out past midnight are cops and the inebriated. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't.
These days I'm working a weekend shift for about a month, all by my lonesome. There was a time I would have liked that, but I think those times have maybe passed. I don't talk to most of my co-workers that much - some of them I completely tune out - but there are a couple good ones. I miss having them around when two of my days in the office are spent in complete solitude.
Still not a people person though. I'm too neurotic and too misanthropic for any of that nonsense. But I have my favorites. I'm not totally Ted Kaczynski yet.
